RELATIONSHIPS ARE THE KEY.

WE ARE COMMITTED TO...

True Grassroots

We are a high impact, clearly focused, grassroots movement that has been bringing hope, sustainability, and dignity to the children and people of Haiti for almost 20 years. We believe in education, economic development, community engagement, and local leadership.

Investing In Children

The 2010 earthquake drew attention to the plight of children in Haiti as 1,000,000 became orphans. Long before the earthquake, however, many children were already orphaned either through the death of their parents or abandonment by parents who didn't have the means to raise them.

Leadership Development

The traditional NGO model of flooding Haiti with resources has not been effective. HTF knows this model is ineffective because it doesn't empower; aid unaccompanied by long-term vision creates dependency.
